Smart Home Surveillance Picket for Android
The best
It is excellent
It works pretty well. There are some bugs but it works most of the time. I wish the "motion" notification had a "ignore xx number of requests within..." delay or was even less sensitive as a gust of wind bombards my phone with notifications. ** would rate higher except paying for an application only to still have to deal with ads is upsetting. That being said I'll still use the application, but still irks me.
[1] Have to delete the saved movie every 2 days. Since the folder only save 500 movies. The next movie (number 501 and further) can only watched online real time, but not saved to GoogleDrive [2] NOT AVAILABLE for iOS. DISAPPOINTED, cannot install on my old iPhone
04/25/17 update: apparently if you upgrade through the Google Play store, the setup is rather quirky. One of my cameras lost power & I had to uninstall all my other Gmail accts but the one I upgraded with from that camera before I could get it to work again. 04/23/17 update: 2nd camera stopped working again saying my trial time had run out. Took all other Gmail accts off phone & tried to sign on as viewer. Keeps saying waiting for camera.
I am beyond pissed! I am on my way out the door and access to this app is being denied me. I paid for this previously! This is scandalous.. now they are trying to make people pay monthly?? Fraudulent thieves. Email them for help they say and when I did they just told me to pay a monthly service fee now. That was not in the original deal. Changing the program and adding additional fees with an updated/reworked program months after a sale is THEFT
Turns old phones into good security cameras
Simple to set up. Great use for old devices!
I really love this application
Hey this is neat.
Have version 2.0 on camera and viewer and the viewer just buffers.
Google wants to use all video created with this app! U must alow that or u cant use it! That sucks!
This app has problems! Constantly buffering no matter what setting the camera is on, when I click on the alert it takes me to the playback screen but there isn't any videos to play. Basically non-useable. Can't figure out how this has a high rating. I did noticed all of the high star reviews are for an older version. Uninstalled.
Works good could do with zoom function
Awesome! What a great idea. Now those old cell phones aren't just junk.
Worked great for me
Tried several other apps of the same type completely pleased with the price, easy setup, and simplicity of it. Works very well. Finally an app that does exactly what it says. Buy it and you end stupid ads.
Nice app, works OK on WiFi or 3G/4G, email notifications is great but I really want an always on screen function in viewer mode.
It's easy to use and can prove your feelings is right I love it
Pls fix it lag because of low frame rate
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm uuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wat I have no idea what to do
Nice concept but my experience has been very glitchy. 'Wait for cam...'
Tried manything then found this much better would recommend I absolutely love this app
There is no trial time, :((
This app works great. Very easy to install and use.
Works well
Great app
Brilliant
Love this
Very nice, does the job! Great app so far from both home and work wifi networks. One time fee after trial is more than fair. The audio is a bit choppy. Would like to see 6 or 8 point motion detection configuration to restrict detection area and an adjustable frame rate. Like it better than Alfred and other apps.
Two things are not to my taste: 1.There must be a background process on the viewer device otherwise it doesn't work. 2.I need to be able to use a custom sound (so that it can wake me up without using IFTTT). Still it's the best surveillance app I've used.
Installed on different devices. When in camera mode it starts fine, but half hour later it stops. I can't connect to camera from viewer and the camera shows black screen instead of the image. The motion sensor is armed. This happened many times on different devices and caused me to come back to restart camera. It drifts the purpose.
Caught my wife cheating with this app using a old smartphone hidden in the bushes. Motion detection went off when she left after I had gone to work. Asked what she was doing and caught her not telling the truth. I was home when she got back and showed her the Recorded clear video. I also can watch from anywhere in real time. Awesome app easy to use. Night Vision is good. Even will sound a siren when motion is detected. Lots of extra features. Great Job
Only thing I would change is being back the feature that allowed you to set front of rear camera on the camera device. You can only set it from the viewer now. EDIT: Feature restored New comment - would be nice to have a local storage option Next - Geotagging
Works very well but from the outset have noticed high power draw on phone used as the camera. Can leave on charger but phone will get quite hot after about an hour. Camera phone is Samsung Galaxy Note 2. Any tips to reduce power use when constant surveillance is required? Thanks in advance.
Using multiple phones in different locations in my home as cameras and monitor from my S6 remotely! This was so easy to set up, and it works perfectly! Settings are individually controlled remotely from your phone, when it's used as a monitor (viewer). This app leaves the others of this type in the dust!
Something has gone wrong and I can no longer get a live feed or retrieve recordings. I use it as front door surveillance to make sure packages aren't stolen. Please help
Great option to use old phones to monitor anything. The better the smartphones, the better this app will be. I like that it can switch from front to back camera, and to use flashlight when it get dark. I purchased this app and when I email for support was quick and very responsive!
Impressive Very cool app. I was able to use a useless old smartphone to recover a handgun stolen from my house. Very impressive for a security app and a good way to repurpose an old smartphone.

Good Monitor for the price
